Related Post 50+ MORE free wedding printables and DIY wedding downloads Hey DIY-loving fiends: once upon a time, I went on a mad search for a ton of free wedding printables.

Guess what I realized that we needed when we were roaming the venue, trying to figure out where everything would go? Wedding signs. And, like, a LOT of them. I am considering signs for things I never thought I'd consider needing signs for, like the long driveway to tell people to keep driving. Or a sign to display the rules of cornhole. Or a sign to tell them where the food trucks are. I even need to make a sign to display all the table names and such. Oy vey. So here's my roundup of wedding signs you know you may need and ones you didn't even know you needed to consider… Tell them where to go with directional signs Wedding Arrow Sign by FloraSouthDesigns Restroom Sign by BarnwoodRustDesigns Show them this is the right wedding with a welcome sign Wedding Welcome Sign by Ashton Creations Encourage guests to sign your guest book Please Sign Our Guestbook sign by RichDesignCo Make sure to see everyone's photos Wedding Hash Tag Sign Decals by EastCoastVinylDecals Tell guests where to sit Pick a seat not a side sign by Etsy seller Our Fiends Eclectic Warn people about your unplugged ceremony Unplugged ceremony printable by Instant Trends Describe your signature cocktails Wedding mirror menu by SugarAndChicShop Highlight the good stuff Love Is Sweet Sign for a dessert table by ZCreateDesign Tell people where to put cards and gifts Cards and Gifts Wedding Sign printable by DreamBigPrintables Photo booth sign Personalized photo booth sign by OurHobbyToYourHome Let people know about important events Sparkler Send Off Wedding Sign by Chicfetti …And where they can get their supplies Sparklers Wedding Sign by PrincessSnap What are the signs you're glad you had made for your wedding?

Show/Hide comments [ 5 ] Yep, this has made me start thinking about what signs will be useful. I think I was assuming the guests would be telepathic and know things, or walk around to work out where things are 😀 But something to tell people to sign a guest book can help stop it being over-looked, and this has reminded me that if we expect people to be able to find their table it'll need a sign! Thanks for the memory jog! Reply Thanks for this post, it's made me think about what signs we might need. I think I was just expecting people to be telepathic(!) or find things by wandering around, but a sign for something like a guestbook can help prevent it being overlooked – and if guests are sitting at specific tables you can't expect them to find them if the tables aren't labelled! So thanks for this reminder. 1 agrees Reply Gah, sorry about the double post – it seemed to disappear the first time so I thought I'd try again (which also disappeared – good thing I wasn't persistent! lol). Apparently it was a technical hitch though as only today, a whole month later, I had an email notifying me I was subscribed to this conversation, which I didn't get when I first posted! So sorry for two such similar posts. Reply We had most of the signs listed. One that we had that I was please with was "Please tip your bartender lest your potion be poisoned." Our bartenders worked their asses off all night long and deserved to be tipped, and they were! I think having the prominent sign right next to the tip jar definitely helped. Reply Oh good idea! I think I'll add "tip your bartenders" to our cocktail list sign. Reply Join the conversation Cancel Reply Your email address will not be published.
